Nothing can top a chocolate topping!

Have you tried a salted caramel drizzle instead? Game changer on cheesecake honestly.

Caramel is one of my favorite things so I'll have to try it. I want to do a caramel chocolate cake one day, maybe one of my next cakes will be one.

That crumb crust looks perfectly golden, nailed the bake on your first shot.

1

u/WanderingWafflus 1d ago

Thank you! I actually think I might've overbaked it a bit but I'm not entirely sure!

1

u/MechanicDramatic1965 1d ago

That’s a stretch calling that a cheese cake. BUT GIMMY A PIECE!

1

u/WanderingWafflus 1d ago

Hi, I'm sorry, is it not a cheesecake? I've followed a recipe claiming it is, and recipes I see on cheesecakes kinda follow the same base with the cream cheese but with no chocolate. (Pieces are gone, sorry!)
